Red&Hot SZECHUAN House

Went there for dinner on a Monday so it was not crowded and got seated right away. The place was cozy and we were able to order food directly online, which was pretty convenient. The fish was not bad and I liked the taste of their pepper with preserved egg & tofu. However, the pepper with preserved eggs was too oily. This was actually my first time having this dish with such quantity of oil and I ended up pouring the oil out while eating … Overall, it was a nice place and the service was pretty prompt and helpful. The only word of advice is to keep in mind of the quantity of oils that you’ll be consumed along with the meal.

The portion sizes here is great, and I like their spin on traditional Sichuan dishes. The eggplant and popcorn chicken dishes were my favorite. The place is small and can get packed. Make sure to come early or make a reservation.

Fairly hidden little gem in an area packed with restaurants. My family stumbled upon this place because the restaurant we were planning on dining at was a 1 hour wait. There was no wait for Red&Hot when we arrived but there was a decent number of people dining. The food here is really good. The portions are very large and the prices are okay. The flavor is authentic and the oil and spice did not make me feel bad afterwards. I will say that it wasn't very spicy - for a place called Red&Hot, some customers may expect extremely spicy dishes. I found it very manageable which is good for me, but which may not meet the expectations of other diners. I would recommend all the dishes we ordered - Hot and Spicy Pork Slices, Fish-flavored Shredded Pork, Fish-flavored Eggplant and Boiled Fish with Sichuan Pepper. We saw other tables getting stuff that looked delicious as well, so I'll definitely try more things next time I come. Our bill all together was $100 including tax and tip.

Food is ok but quite pricey. It takes quite some time to prepare as well. The fish in chili oil was not as flavourful as it looked. Fried rice is pretty good.

The taste was alright. The fried dishes were more oily than we would have preferred and the spicy ones were very sweet (maybe a one-time thing of adding too much sugar). One good thing was the portion size, which was generous considering the prices. The service was fast but dirty dishes from previous guests were left on the tables without being cleaned away - we finished our meal and the table next to us was still dirty. That was a little odd because the servers weren’t too busy anyway.

Taste good. Kinds of traditional Sichuan cuisine. The spicy level is just right, not like other Sichuan cuisines, the only taste I can feel is hot. The most recommended dish is brown sugar rice cake. The sesames are filled inside. It is amazing!

I love spicy food, but I can't handle too spicy. The dishes are not just spicy, but packed with flavour. Absolutely recommend the brown sugar rice cake. Great dessert to finish off a hearty meal. Great presentation. Portions are very generous. Prices are not very expensive. Spacious, and tables are amply distanced. Would definitely come back again!

If you love spicy food then this is the place to go. It’s the most authentic Sichuan restaurant I've ever eaten in Toronto. Don’t forget their dessert - brown sugar rice cake, so yummy!
